Inés Voglar joined the Oregon Symphony in August 2004, and is active
as a teacher, coach, chamber music player, and soloist.
Ms. Voglar earned a Bachelor of Music degree with Honors from Duquesne University,
and a Master of Music degree from Carnegie Mellon University, where she studied with
violinist Andres Cárdenes. Prior to her arrival in Portland, Ms. Voglar performed
with the Pittsburgh Symphony for two seasons, where she also appeared as a soloist.
Her interest in contemporary music led her to become a member of the Pittsburgh New
Music Ensemble. During that time, she had the opportunity to premier various works,
including a violin solo piece, "Chameleon," written for her by American composer David
Stock in 2001. The Pittsburgh Tribune wrote that "the evening's most musically touching
moment occurred when violinist Inés Voglar played with ineffable poignancy, a magical
moment that required impressive technical finesse." The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said that she
"attacked the music with fierce intensity and absolute precision."
